If its a windows 11 PC, there is a windows update that caused the issue and RDP closes after few seconds.
Windows update KB5064401. It's the one bundled with the bad KB update, which breaks RDP.
Plus need to stop the windows update in the future,
1. Services method (quick but reversible)
- Press Win + R, type services.msc, hit Enter.
- Scroll to Windows Update.
- Double-click it → set Startup type to Disabled.
- Stop the service if it’s running.
That will stop automatic updates until you manually re-enable the service. Windows may try to turn it back on after big feature updates, so keep an eye on it.
Another Option is to restore the pc to a known working point however this is only an option if you have activated restore points on the pc prior to the problematic update.
System Restore. It’s like a time machine for Windows, but it only works if you had it switched on before the gremlins crept in.
